Geez, you outta see me when I get onna roll, that was humor..
You mentioned using a solenoid for valve action, that means a very specific
volume of hydralic fluid in a very precise moment,  Maybe Livermore or
Scandia have something like that, but nothing even close for general use.
Vast difference, IMHO between fuel and valve actuation.  With fuel (speaking
of diesels), the opening timing is the critical number, and then guantity
(yes both closely related, and critical).  But the mechanical pumps you
mention have been refined for decades.  2000 PSI is also on the lower side,
the Bosch run at 25-28K..

   Hope that was easy enough
